Thanks Garry, yeah that birdnest was huge eh.

large blue stag 150
blue cluster stag 50

Ha- yeah, it was kind of difficult. Made it home with only one 1/2 piece broken off a tip. Considering it was crammed into the bucket I think I did fairly well. Should be BYOB for anybody who picks up the other piece. I should add that somebody really should pick up the confuscia- excellent size and colours, great price. If I didn't already have one grown from one of your frags last year I would have been all over it.

Anyhow, thanks again- beautiful piece.

Thanks for the piece John, I will grab some photos when its in the tank. For anyone that's hesitant because of the price of the larger colonies you shouldn't be, THEY ARE AMAZING and well worth the prices he has listed there.

I have actually never seen such large sps colonies, I can't wait to see the progress of the new tank!

John is THE MAN.

He gave me a whole schwack of frags for my new tank today. No charge and not so much as an ass slap on the way out.

John thanks for helping a new guy out. Was great reefNerding with you for a while and best of luck on the new tank. Your tank was beautiful in person and that was AFTER you thinned it out considerably.
